OBJECT SET INDICATOR TYPE ( {* ;} object ; indicator ) 
Parameter Type   Description
Operator in If specified, object is an object name (string) If omitted, object is a field or variable
object  Form object in Object name (if * is specified) or
Field or variable (if * is omitted)
indicator  Longint in Indicator type

The OBJECT SET INDICATOR TYPE command modifies the type of progress indicator for the thermometer(s) designated by the object and * parameters in the current process.

The indicator type defines the display variant of the thermometer. For more information, refer to Indicators in the Design Reference manual. 

Passing the optional * parameter indicates that the object parameter is an object name (string). If you do not pass this parameter, it indicates that the object parameter is a field or variable. In this case, you pass a field or variable reference instead of a string (field or variable object only).

In the indicator parameter, pass the type of indicator you want to display. You can use one of the following constants, found in the "Form Objects (Properties)" theme:

Constant Type Value Comment
Asynchronous progress bar Longint 3 Circular indicator displaying continuous animation
Barber shop Longint 2 Bar displaying continuous animation
Progress bar Longint 1 Standard progress bar
